Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems WINGMAN ACB ACTIVE CRUISE W/BRAKING - Manual (Page 2)

2
Once cruise control is set and the system is maintaining a
set following distance between you and the vehicle in front,
if the vehicle in front of you slows down below the cruise
control’s set speed, the Bendix
® Wingman ® ACB system
will intervene and, as necessary, in this order:
(a) reduce the engine throttle, then
(b) apply the engine retarder, then
(c) apply the foundation brakes,
in an attempt to maintain the set following distance behind
the vehicle ahead. NOTE: If during the intervention, it is
necessary to apply the foundation brakes, the vehicle will
not automatically resume the cruise control set speed.
If the vehicle ahead slows below the cruise control’s set
speed, but then accelerates away, and the Wingman ACB
system did not need to use the foundation brakes, the
system will automatically accelerate back to the original
cruise control set speed, and again maintain a set following
distance behind any detected forward vehicles.
Because the Wingman ACB system operates along with
normal cruise control, all the typical features built into cruise
control work as usual. For example, limits imposed by
factory-set road speed governors, etc. are fully supported
by the Wingman ACB system.
PART TWO: ALERTS
Bendix Wingman ACB also assists by giving audible and
visual alerts, whether or not cruise control is on. See Pages
8-10 for more information on the three types of alerts the
driver may hear and/or see displayed.
